Nerdy to Badass Werewolf Series

Chapter 2

Upon entering the library I immediately spotted her. She sat in the far back corner, sitting on the ground, reading her favourite book, 'To Kill a Mockingbird'. I've never personally read it, but she does recommended it.

Chloe is very beautiful, with her long blonde hair and amazing body. Something that was very different between us. She still wore her glasses, but wouldn't need it when she turns sixteen soon. It saddens me when I think that I won't be here for my two best friends' birthdays.

Making my way over to her, I sat down. She closed her book and looked over at me in confusion.

"What happened? You never show up this early." She says seriously but still with a soft smile. I sigh and lean my head against the book shelf, causing her smile to fall and a look of concern to wash over her face.

"I found my mate." I whisper while playing with my fingers. I know how Chloe felt about mates. She's always wanted one, so I'm sure that she'll be angry at me for being so ridiculous.

"That’s amazing Sky! Who is he?" She yells, but immediately goes quiet when the librarian shush's her.

"I don't know. I didn't stick around to find out." I say nervously and flinch when I see her smile fall. Instead of a frown, like I thought she'd pull, she gives me a look of sympathy.

"Why wouldn't you want to know who he is? Is it cause you're moving?" She asks, placing her hand on my shoulder and giving it a gentle squeeze.

"Yes and no. No cause, what if he rejects me Chloe? No one in this school would want to be my mate, what says that he'll be any different?" I ramble on, before groaning and putting my face in my hands.

Just then I heard my phone beep, indicating a new message. I sighed and pulled my phone out, scrolling to the message. I looked at the name and saw that it was Cole.

'Hey Sky, Mom and Dad said that we're leaving early. So we're outside. Hurry up. Time to go.'

Looking at that message, relief immediately flooded me. Now I wouldn't have to worry about running into him today. Turning to Chloe, I explained the message. She pulled me into her embrace and wished me luck. I left the library then made my way to find Dylan.

Finding Dylan was easy. I saw him in his class and he saw me. He asked to excuse himself then came out. I told him that I'm leaving now, to which he pulled me into his embrace. I smiled as he hugged me tightly, telling me how much he'll miss me. I pulled away before saying goodbye and walking away from him. I rushed to my locker, getting all the things I needed.

Then I smelt him.

Just as I was about to close my locker his scent filled my nose. I was going to make a run for it but was too late when I was pinned against the row of lockers.

I hissed at the pain but ignored it when I felt the sparks run through my body. I didn't want to look up, knowing the identity of my mate. My body defied me and did, and shock was the only thing I felt when I looked into the eyes of my mate.

Soon-to-be Alpha Kyle Black.

"Are you kidding me?! Why did you have to be my mate?! Of all people, it's you!" Every word he spat hurt, I couldn't deny it. I knew where this was all going and it came.

"I, Kyle Black, reject you, Skylar Maine, as my mate." He sneered in my face. Then my phone began to vibrate. I knew that it was my brothers, which made me nervous. No one should make them wait. I knew if I kept them waiting, that they would come in here and search for me. So I tried pushing him off and said the first thing that came to mind.

"I don't care! Now let go of me!" I knew that he was taken back by my outburst and for a slip second I thought I saw pain pass through his eyes, but it was immediately gone. Instead he glared at me, and shoved me again.

"How don't you care?! I just rejected you! How aren't you upset?!" He yelled, beginning to crush my shoulder with the amount of pressure he's putting on it.

"Let go of me! I knew that you'd most likely reject me! Now let me go, I'll see you in a year!" I yelled before shoving him off of me. I can't explain where all of this confidence was coming from. I've just had enough of him. All of his tormenting, his words, his actions, and now this. I snapped.

I was completely shocked that I could shove an Alpha off of me, though I probably just caught him off guard. I started to walk away but yelped when he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. I glared up at his confused face.

"What do you mean you'll see me in a year?" He asks, worry clear on his face. Why would he be worried? It's not like he would care about me?

"Go ask you Dad. Now let go!" Saying that to him, made him release his grip on my wrist slightly. He was obviously distracted and I made use of that. I pulled away from him and left him there. I pushed the front doors open and saw my brothers' car.

I was finally free. I could finally leave this hell in my life, leaving behind the person who made it hell. But I wasn't completely happy.

Climbing into their car, they asked questions on why I was so silent, but I didn't answer. I could only focus on the pain my wolf and I were going through with this rejection. I knew it was coming, but I never knew it hurt so much. I couldn't let them see the pain though. I refused.

I tried speaking to her, but all she could do was whimper in pain. I promised her that I'd never let someone hurt us like this again. Reaching home was quick and before I knew it, we were on our way to our new home.

Chapter 4

Kyle's POV

Waking up this morning, my wolf was very excited. He continuously kept running around, smiling and just looking happy. It was odd for him though. He wasn't the type of wolf to be 'giddy', he was always calm and collected, not really taking interest in my life unless it came to pack issues. I had asked him numerous times why he was suddenly being like this, but he'd just ignore me, going on with jumping around. I eventually gave up, shrugging.

I grabbed my school bag, lugging it over my shoulder before making my way downstairs. Walking into the kitchen, I saw my father sitting at the kitchen table, reading through a few files while drinking coffee. Mom was drinking her coffee, leaning against the kitchen counter. She smiled when she saw me.

"Good morning sweetheart." I smiled, sitting down and making myself some cereal.

"Morning guys." I said before beginning to eat my cereal.

"Son.." Father went on, explaining something but I barely paid attention. My mind was to focused on understanding what was wrong with my wolf. All of this was just so unlike him, and it worried me. I couldn't keep dwelling on the issue, so I finished up my cereal before saying goodbye and heading out the house. School was waste of time in my honest opinion, I mean I'm becoming Alpha soon, so why should I go then? Parents. They are the only reason I bother going there.

I arrived late, and watched as most people already were walking inside. I turned the car off before climbing out. I grabbed my bag and walked to the front of the school where all my friends were waiting for us. As I did so, I caught the eye of most of the girls here, and a few glares from some guys, but those that were human. Those who were in my pack knew better than to glare at me. My wolf growled in annoyance as I loved all the attention all the girls were giving me, going on about that only our mate could look at me like that. Rolling my eyes, I shut him out, not wanting to listen to another lecture from him.

I finally reached my friends and greeted all of them. There stood Brian my Third in Command, Bruce a strong pack warrior and Damon, my cousins who's also a very strong pack warrior. We have all always been close, and have always had each other's backs.

"Kyle! Late again man? So how's the new Betas?" Brian asked, patting me on the back. In full honesty, I would have rather had Brian as my Beta, but father chose for me. Three Betas wasn't a common thing. I believe he chose all three of them because they're triplets, though they have to go through some special training of sorts.

If I remember correctly they're names are Will, Cole and Liam. I know they have another sibling, I just can't seem to remember who it is. Oddly enough, they're older than me, and have already completed school. I still don't really know why he chose them specifically, but I didn't bother arguing. He has his reasons for everything he does. For example, its most common for soon to be Alphas to take up the role when they are 18, but he's decided to give me the title at 17. Which will only be next year. He took over at 17 and so did my Grandfather.

"They're alright I guess. They leave for that special training today. I don't understand why they must be trained by the Ancients but not me?" I spoke, shrugging. It was confusing, but I didn't dwell on it for too long. As we all walked down the hallways, making our way to homeroom, I suddenly stopped. That’s when the most amazing smell hit me.

Vanilla and the ocean.

I didn't even think those two scents combined could smell as great as it did. I knew exactly what it was and then it all made sense. I now understood why my wolf was so excited today.

I rushed to homeroom, leaving everyone behind. I had to find her. I had to find my mate. As I followed her scent I tracked it to my homeroom class. Unfortunately as I stepped inside, I noticed that her scent left through the other door of the class. Just as I was about to run after her, I was stopped by the teacher.

"Mr Black, glad you could finally join us. Now sit." He spoke sternly, sending me a glare. If it weren't for the fact that he was human, I would have ripped his throat out for speaking to me like that, but can't without exposing my secret, and that’s against Wolf Law. So I reluctantly sat down, my leg shaking as I just wanted to go after my mate, my Luna.

After having to wait for over 5 minutes in class, I gave up and jumped out of my seat. I ran out the class, ignoring the teacher yelling out for me. Her scent was becoming faint, I couldn't lose it. I had to find her. I ran down the halls, searching everywhere. Just as I was about to enter the library, I smelt her scent was stronger down another hallway. I followed that one rather.

I wish I didn't follow it. I wish that I had never seen who my mate was. Looking down the hallways she was in, the one I was destined to with, was none other than Skylar Maine. I knew who she was in this school, what her reputation was in this school. She could never be my Luna, she was weak, she couldn't handle a position like this. I knew what I had to do. For goodness sakes, everyone would mock me if they found who she was. My wolf screamed at me to stop, to accept her. But I couldn't. I can't accept a weak Luna.
